George was musician. He blew a cor
net night and day in large and popular
concert garden in New York, while hun
dreds of aesthetic but thirsty listeners sat
at tables and slipped beer. They were not
always as attentive to the music as
George could wish, for he was inspired
by truly artistic feeling and his whole
soul went forth upon the garden air when
he blew the solo in sold Folks at Home -
or filed his less prominent part in"Danc-
ing in the Barn." To his ardent tempera-
uent it Seemed as il all the world should
stand stall at divine music's call, but he
had learned to be content with the heart
felt applause OF the few who came more
to listen than to drink and gossip, and he
blew and blew again, forte, plano, STAG
cato, with all the various shades of tone
and feeling that lay in the possibilities Of
his nickel-plated instrument.
But there was special cause for
Georges most effective execution. AS the
weeks passed he had become conscious Of
Two persons in the audience who came
with great regularity night after night.
One OF these was rOsy-cheeked, plump,
demure looking German girl. That was
hinna, but George didn't know 1t. He
only knew that pair OF fat little hands
patted each other gayly and that partic-
nlarly pretty mouth got bewitchingly
mixed up with some deep dimples when
ever he made his bow at the conclusion
of solo. The other person was Miuna's
father. George surmised as much, but he
failed to feel any interest in him or in
SEPARATION from his presence. 1t was for
Mlnna be blew, and it got so at last that
he always looked for her when be rose to
play, and il by some mischance she was
not present, he blew with a pathetic
melancholy that affected the more sensi-
tive OF mis- hearers to tears and made the
others so blue that the leader of the or
chestra reprimanded him for his lack of
life. 1t was getting to be a serious mat
ter for George, when one evening as ne
stepped to the front he bowed directly at
little Minna instead of to the audience at
large, as was bis custom. sShe saw Ii,
her eyes twinkled, and she hid her rosy
mouth and bIushing cheeks in big beer
mug. But she raised her eyes from the
WhiIe-capped beverage and glanced at
the excited George over the rim of the
glass. There was inspiration for you |.
Myl didn't the music fairly rush in tor
rents from his cornell Re blew until the
walters stood still in wonder; the noisiest
gossipers became quite periOrce; the very
dust on the rafiers danced in ecstasy and
came sitting, settling down on the heads
OF the entranced audience. Applause

stefan could blow 10 more from very

batting it

L iOOh EAhDONf hh BALD
The next evening Minna and her father
were in their places as usual. MInna
looked slyly at the anxious cornetist, and
when she saw that he was staring
directly at her she turned away in ap.
parent confusion. OF course George was
puzzled. Was she displeased at his bold
effortsp Or was It shrewd encourage
ment TO further trials? What lover ever
had trustworthy chart of the express
sions, facial or verbal, ofthe girl who had
shared him? The musician determin ed
not to be baified, and when the intermis-
sion came be went down and sought to
renew his acquaintance with the father.
1t was not so difficult as on the evenin z
previous. The taciturn smoker nodded to
him, and in the course of ten minutes
said at least as many words. Then he
slowly rose to his feet, and addressing
the maiden, said:
"Komm, Minna, wir muessen helm
gehen."
George knew enough about German by
bearsay to understand that his friends
were going to depart and that the young
lady's name was Minna. This he re-
garded as great progress, bat his heart
almost stopped beating when Minna
turned toward him as she walked away
and acknowledged his presence with a
nod and smile.
That night George saw nothing but
Minna everywhere. A frescoed goddess
of wisdom on the wall OF the garden be-
came Minna rather than Minerva; the
names on the signs in the streets that he
saw on the way home resolved themselves
into Minna If they began with NJ; and in
his dreams the letters M lima paraded
before him in all the forms known TO print
ers, as well as in shapes not classified /:
hnr in mi 10 Ia In
case, old Roman, long primer and script;
MS dancing about on spiders legs; Ms
with fat German faces; AS shaped like
beer mugs with pretty face behind
them; Us like dainty fingers, piquant
noses, and all shifting and transpos-
ing themselves till to the sleeper the
whole world seemed maze of alphabets
and smiles.
For several evenings after this George
continued his chats with the big German,
who gradually became communicative
and appeared really to welcome the mu-
sician's visits. And Minna nodded TO him
when he approached, but he never dared
address her. He felt a dreadful terror
lest he should ruin all by q hasty advance
and vowed again to wait until he should
be formally presented. But he looked
more and more at the daughter as he con-
yersed with the father. She almost always
smiled. That was bewitching and be-
wildering too; for George could not
iathom her smile aud knew not whether
she were encouraging or making fun Of
him. She never spoke. except occasion
ally ~ German TO her father. The latter
rarely seemed conscious OF her presence
and never gave poor George any kind Of
Introduction to her.
One evening the German was talkin &
on his iavorite topic, politics, and George,
engaged as he was in watching Minna,
was giving rambling answers. He bad

his remarks we're so manifestly out Of

There was a very important State
official in California who thought
everybody knew him or ought to know
him. He was one day walking
through field. when q bull addressed
him in an undertone, and made for
him with his head down and horns in
q position to raise him. He was a
State official, a man OF dignity and po-
litical power and natural pomposity,
but he ian. He ran surprisingly we'll.
He ran even better than he did for OF
fee, and be got to the fence first. He
clambered over out of breath and dig

calmly contemplating the operation.
"What do you mean, sir3" asked the
irate official. "What do you mean by
having an infnriated animal like that
roaming over the field?'
"Well. / guess the bull has some
right in the field"
